Hi guy’s
I have used Lookout 5.1 for more than three years in my company..
The whole system is getting the temperature and lighting control from about 30 rooms..
It also control’s 4 air condition system..
Everything works fine, but since november last year I have study Labview 8.0 and tried to do the same thing..
Finally I also have bought the DSC module..
I have read true almost everything in this forum just to collect enough information to solve my problems, but still.. I didn’t have any luck so far..
The system use MODBUS RTU serial communication, and I’m controlling a mastergenerator from Carlo Gavazzi witch controls my units by a bus system calls dupline.
With lookout I easily writes and read from my register like this example.
Write digital to 404097.1 and up to 16. And reading the temperature from the register 40257 and up.. These register is the same as UI8 in labview (0-255)
I have tried to use the DSC modbus server, and drag the components to my frontpanel…
When I start this, every component has a green sign.. SO it seems to me that they communicate true RS232. I use the same communication settings that my mastergenerator does.. (9600, 8, 1…. And so on)
So my question is.. what is wrong here?? Shouldn’t it be easy to make this work??
I have tried to read from 40257, changed it to 400257 and so on.. But nothing happen..
All components have the green sign, but still no results to see….
Anybody… ?? any idea?? Can anybody help me?
Maybe I have misunderstand something??.. but true the video about making a Modbus server with DSC, this should be easy…
Benjii..
